The `process.throwDeprecation` property indicates whether the
`--throw-deprecation` flag is set on the current Node.js process. See the
The initial value of `process.throwDeprecation` indicates whether the
`--throw-deprecation` flag is set on the current Node.js process.
`process.throwDeprecation` is mutable, so whether or not deprecation
warnings result in errors may be altered at runtime. See the
documentation for the [`'warning'` event][process_warning] and the
[`emitWarning()` method][process_emit_warning] for more information about this
flag's behavior.
[`emitWarning()` method][process_emit_warning] for more information.

process.throwDeprecation = true;

process.emitWarning('test', 'DeprecationWarning');
// will cause an error to be thrown

Should docs change? I mean, may say that process. throwDeprecation is mutable at runtime like: "The process.throwDeprecation is a mutable property at runtime which indicates...". And of course, add your example
